    Great that this stopped for now, but I wouldn't hold my breath just yet. Doesn't feel like they're quite done with PIPA and SOPA yet.

    I agree with this.

    At least it's over, for now.     ​

    of course they're not done. It probably won't be done until the people behind it get the hint that it's not going to do any good, or until it finally gets voted on and doesn't pass

    SOPA has become that one video game boss that I want to beat.
    Why do I feel like the next time it comes, it will be twice as powerful?

    It will never be done.


    Do you know how long they have been trying to do this? Ever since like....way back.


    Greedy *******s. They won't stop. They'll try to find a way.

    well, if it gets kept long enough maybe the younger generation will get in the government and know what happened so they'll keep it from happening again
